I’ve tried method 1 and 2. Neither works right.

Method 1 is on now and you can see it at http://schoolofbookkeeping.com/answers/

Method 2 (with the shortcode) works when I visit the page but shows what you see on the link above when I choose “go back to forum lists”.

I use X Theme from Themeco. I can’t imagine that is the issue?

Also, I changed to Twenty Fourteen and same problem.

did you create a bbpress.php file??

Hey Robkk,
No but it works fine in my other sites without it. I just created one as a copy of the page.php file and nothing changed.

RESOLVED: The plugin Auto Excerpt Everywhere was conflicting. Disabled and away we go!

glad you find the solution to your problem
